Scatter Plot

The EPOS GUI supports displaying time series as scatter plots, enhancing the visualization of your data:

Usage

To correctly display a CoverageJSON as a Scatter Plot, follow these steps:

1. Add the plotType Attribute to the Desired Parameter:

   • In your CoverageJSON payload, locate the parameters object.
   • For the parameter you wish to visualize as a scatter plot, add the plotType attribute.

   Example:

   {
     "parameters": {
       "Magnitude": {
         "description": {
           "en": "The magnitude of the earthquake"
         },
         "observedProperty": {
           "id": "earthquake_magnitude",
           "label": {
             "en": "Earthquake Magnitude"
           }
         },
         "plotType": "https://www.data-to-viz.com/graph/scatter.html", // Add this
         "type": "Parameter",
         "unit": {
           "symbol": "Mw"
         }
       }
     }
   }

2. Define Supported Plot Types:

   • Currently, the EPOS GUI supports two plot types:

     1. Scatter Plot: Identified using https://www.data-to-viz.com/graph/scatter.html

        

     2. Line Plot: Identified using https://www.data-to-viz.com/graph/line.html

        

Default Plot Type

If the plotType attribute is not explicitly specified for a parameter within the parameters object, the EPOS GUI will default to displaying the parameter using a Line Plot.
